Sophie

Dylan and Troy walk angrily, tossing the drinks at the feet of the boys who are laughing away, careless of who is looking at them. Lexie and I run behind them to prevent a fight.

"What the hell is your problem man? Why the hell did you pour GHB inside our drinks you fucking morons?" Dylan glares at them grabbing one of the guys by his shirt, evident he has taken some of the drug himself by the way he carelessly laughs away. "Yeah, why the hell did you. . .wait! What? What the hell is GHB?" Troy squints his eyes in confusion as he holds the other chuckling idiot by his shirt.

Dylan's hand held the guys shirt tightly, his other hand held high in a fist by the guy stumbling over.

"GHB, it's gamma. . . .-hydroxybutyric acid. It's a generic substance, used on people with deep depression. But it causes them to suffer hallucinations and can even make a person fall unconscious. These assholes were probably thinking of having the chance to get into Sophie or Alexa's pants, weren't you?" He pulls the guy close to his face, but he just giggles and battles with his own body to stay upright. Both guys chuckle away, but just as Dylan is ready to punch him in the face Logan steps in front of him stopping his punch in mid-air.

"Enough! Either all of you behave or leave. This is my friend's party, I don't want to see any of this childish bullshit." He glares angrily between Dylan and Troy. Dylan harshly pulls his hand away and lets go of the guy, making him fall to the ground.

"Whatever, I'm out." Dylan turns clenching his jaw and walks a few feet away towards me. Dylan’s intention was for Logan to let the situation go, but seeing me by Dylan's side makes his blood boil. I know he is probably pissed off that I'm here.

He walks towards us and looks furious at me, making me become startled to see him here completely intoxicated.

"I should have known these idiots were with you, Soph! You are nothing but trouble you know that? Why the hell did you come here? Came to ruin my night before the beginning of school tomorrow?" He raises his hands to the sides taking one step back.

"Whatever you say, Logan! I didn't even know you were going to be here, ok. But don't worry, we were just leaving." I look uto the side and see Amber making out with a guy on the balcony. I chuckle, nodding my head and folding my hands over my chest. I should of known, unbelievable.

"Yeah, like I'll believe you didn't know I was here Sophie! I go to every freaking party. You, on the other hand, are a loner. Never get invited to a single party. So it's easy to say that the one surprised here is me. So now, why don't you and your friends get-"

"Enough Logan. As Sophie said, we were leaving. Now, why don't you be a good boy...and let it go, ok?" Troy steps in front of him, clenching his jaw and fisting his hands. I hold Troy's arm and slowly pull him back, seeing that both boys stand face to face.

"Troy, let it go. Let's just leave, ok?"

"Yeah Troy, listen to your little pet and leave." Logan's veins engorge, the anger inside of him increasing with each second. But Troy doesn't budge. "Troy, man, we should go. We can take the girls to get something good to eat. Maybe take a walk down by the lake! What do you say?" Dylan suggests.

Troy holds his ground, but even though he hates to admit it, he's already becoming soft-hearted with Dylan and raises his head and steps away. "Mark my words pretty boy, Sophie is not alone. She has me to look after her, and now. . ." He wraps an arm over my shoulders and another over Dylan.

"Now she has Dylan too. Right, Dylan?" Dylan smiles and grabs my hand and pulls me towards him, making me gasp and stumble a little, making me raise my hands and placing them on Dylan's chest.

"Definitely! Sophie, you can definitely count on me." He tells me, giving me a tight squeeze and kissing the top of my head. "Oh please! You all make it sound like she's the fucking victim all the time. She's just as bad, and she's an evil prankster. But you know what? Do whatever you want with your new toy, Sophie. He'll probably dump you before you know it." He says as he begins to walk away, my eyes fill with a treacherous tear, making me look away.

Troy quickly grabs Logan by his shoulder turning him around and punching him right on his jaw. Just as quickly, both boys begin to exchange punches again. In the midst of all the commotion, somehow I end up being pushed inside the pool. The water at this time is ice cold and though I am an avid swimmer, I get an awful cramp on my leg and submerge underwater, unable to swim up.

Before I can reason, Logan launches himself inside the water and swims underneath. Swimming towards me as the pain keeps me under. He comes in front of me and holds me tight against his chest, ordering me to look at him with his free hand. When I stop squirming around, he quickly pushes off with his feet and brings me to the surface. We both gasp for air as the cold wind hits our face.

I cough and he holds me steady with his hand looking at me with concern, examining me as we both sit by the steps on the inside of the pool.

"Sophie, look at me? look at me Soph, Are you ok?" He asks me frantically, holding my face with both of his hands as I gasp for air and cough. I nod but continue to cough, my body shivers from the cold breeze hitting me.

"Sophie! Fuck, I am so sorry Soph! This is all my fault. I should have listened to you and walked away. You almost drowned in there, baby girl!" Troy and Alexa quickly pull me out, while I continue to cough, limping from one foot as the pain of my leg cramp is still lingering on the back of my foot.

"And you!" Alexa glares furiously at Logan.

"None of this would have happened if you weren't such a jerk to her all the time anyway. And just because you pulled her out, does not mean you are on good terms with us Logan. You're still an asshole, and honestly, it should of been you drowning in that water instead of Sophie." She pushes him on his chest making him step back. He lowers his head and stares at me.

"Sophie, I'm sorry. I didn't mean for it to go this far. I know I pick on you all the time, but, it doesn't mean I hate you, honest. I'm. . . .I'm sorry, Soph!"

"Sophie? Maybe we should just go now," Dylan says softly to me as he takes off his hoodie making me put it on.

"It's fine, Logan. Just, forget it, ok!" Though I'm thankful he rescued me, I can't truly believe in any of his apologies, nor bear to forgive him for all the nasty pranks he's done to me. At least, not yet anyway.
